Another 5 * Review ~ Again, you so flatter me, I hardly know how to react!! I am a bit blushing and gefletched about such awesome praise, but I am also dancing on the inside and screaming out loud! Thank you so much. To receive two 5* reviews on my first two books is an honor I will always cherish. I so appreciate you taking the time not only to read my work, but to write about your thoughts on the story. I love this story and am also writing a sequel, Ribbons of Moonbeams, which should be done this summer about the rest of the story and what happens to Lily. I love Lily and am so glad you did too. Blessings from SW Florida. ~ Muffy xo

5* Review
~ Thank you so very, very much for your kind and generous review of my
first love and my first book. This book took me four years to write and every
ounce of love and imagination I possess went into crafting this love story that
spans a century. The inspiration for this story was Washington Island, WI where
I lived and owned a business with my husband. Nestled in the cool waters
between Lake Michigan and Green Bay, it was hard NOT to be inspired. You are
very much appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read my book and write
this lovely, lovely review. ~ Muffy xo

This story concept was originally formed for a proposed series. Now it has been completed revised, lengthened, and re-edited for Hot Ink Press.

Essentially a vampire erotic romance, it also has threads of magic, and taking place in New Orleans, it's set in a music club/rock club, the mysterious StarZ.

Ethan Ross, the vampire hero, has been in New Orleans since his girlfriend and sire, dumped him in 1922. He's used to the weird undercurrents of the city and now works in StarZ that caters to the supernatural folks. His band, Deep Dream, play there. He's tasked with taking care of the 'ordinary humans' that arrive in the club and he does this happily ...

With a broken heart to heal Ethan swore off love long ago ... that is until starry eyed Anna Prideaux wanders into his life.

Then sparks start to fly ...

She watched him
disappear into the gloom. Anna stood and scooped her phone from the counter.
She glanced around to check who might be watching her. When it looked like no
one was, she quickly followed Marcus. She quickened her pace as she lost sight
of him in the swirling mist at the back of the club’s main room. Marcus
disappeared.

When she reached where she’d last seen him a shiver spiked
up her back. The mist was freezing cold, the air thick with potent. Anna turned
away as a weird fear gripped her. She practically ran back to the bar, weaving
through the groups of patrons, and muttering, “Sorry,” as she knocked into one,
splashed the drink from the glass of another, until she stood in front of
Ethan.

His gaze mesmerized her. She wasn’t even sure she actually
heard his voice, but somehow he soothed her.

“Anna, it’s time you went home now. You want to go home. You
have work to do transcribing the interview with the band. Everything’s fine.”

She smiled at him. “I’m off now. Thank you for answering my
questions. Thank Marcus for me. He left.” She gestured toward where she’d run
from. A flutter of fear rose in her stomach and then Ethan was leaning forward,
his blue eyes capturing her so that she dreamily froze to soak up his low
voiced words.

BOOK SYNOPSIS

Holly Jacobs loses her heart a little too easily. Never again. But when she meets the sexy soldier on the beach, Holly knows she's in big trouble. Zack Winter is gorgeous and in pain, and when he kisses Holly, all of her resolve melts away...

Zack is on short-term leave to attend a funeral, and he's walking a fine line. The loss is unbearable...and he'll do whatever it takes to distract himself from it. Especially if it means a night of searingly-hot sex with Holly Jacobs. Only his brilliant idea isn't exactly going according to plan.

One night isn't nearly enough. But if it goes much longer it might end in broken hearts…

EXCERPT

“Don’t you need to go, Holly Jacobs?” Even the way he murmured my name was sexy. This was crazy. Add that to my track record of bad decisions and getting involved with Zack was dumb on an epic level. I was incapable of having a no-strings fling. For me, it was all or nothing, and this time I was going to make the sane decision.

“Why don’t you call me just Holly?” Asking him another question was harmless.

I saw a flash of white teeth in the darkness. “I like your name.” He sounded amused. “Is that okay, Just-Holly?”

Dear God. In the middle of his grief and distress, he still had a sense of humor. I really needed to escape before I found any more reasons to linger. But I didn’t move an inch.

“You sure you don’t want to come back to my place?” His whisper reverberated through me, turning my spine liquid and my knees to jelly. He shifted position slightly and I felt him trailing a hand up my back, the fingertips tiptoeing with excruciating slowness and precision.

“Zack, I don’t do one-night stands.”

“I’m here for two nights.”
